| 08/07/03 | Bob G | I'll guess Len Duncan in Ken Hickey's car.. |
| 09/29/03 | Ed Duncan | The # 19 Ken Hickey Offy is the team car to the # 9. Larry Bloomer is the driver pictured shown being pushed off. |
| 05/14/04 | Pat Templeton | Are we sure this is Hatfield? |
| 05/14/04 | 3-Wide | We're pretty sure as friend and supporter of the Vault Woody Nyce provided the picture and that's his dad's truck pushing the car. Hopefully Woody will comment on it or if you're at one of the GSVSCC or NOTARC Shows and you see an aqua colored #1 Coupe, say hello to Woody! |
| 09/13/05 | Louis S. | I agree with the reader who questioned if this was Hatfield. I attended nearly every midget and sprint car race there form early fifties until it closed and I do not remember the stands being enclosed unless it was before I started attending. |
| 03/14/08 | Merit O'Neal | If this is Hatfield,
the picture would be prior to 1954. I worked for George Marshman and lived
in the house on the property in the 1950s. We widened, banked and paved the
half-mile dirt track early in 1954. This photo shows Larry Bloomer in the Ken Hickey #19 on dirt instead of a paved raceway and is not the crash rail I built in 1954. (See the Sanatoga Memories photo of Bobby Marshman in the #99 with Bill Blatt standing alongside the car at Hatfield and notice the double row crash rail.) I have been to Hatfield in 1949 when George Marshman was driving Art Gottiers Offy and there was no covered grandstand at that time. The tow truck or push vehicle in both photos appears to be the same. |

Back in the day some people would take the trunk-lid off their coupe’s and put a make-shift pickup bed in to haul stuff. A novel idea, forerunner idea for x-tra cab pickup trucks of today. |
